How to save screenshot in windows phone gallery using unity ?
I am trying to save the texture using the untiy Method of Application.CaptureScreenShot(); but it not save the screen shot to the windows phone camera roll or gallery.i have searched a lot of foroums for my problem but found nothing. :( Can anyone please solve this issue or suggest me any link. Thanks in advanced. :)
Have you checked the persistent data path ?
On mobile platforms the filename is appended to the persistent data path.
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Application-persistentDataPath.html
yes i can see the screenshots that are save in my local computer.but that are not save to the gallery or camera roll of windows phone.
I guess the gallery does not look for images in the persistent data path simply. Try to find how you can move the screenshot inside the standard images folder.
To save a screenshot in windows phone using unity need to do like this:
Use this directive #if NETFX_CORE to declare some code for windows phone :
StorageFolder picturesLibraryFolder = KnownFolders.PicturesLibrary //(picture library folder)
Write a method with two param (fileName and byte[] file (here is image encoded to png/jpg from texture2D when make capture)
--async YourNameMethod(string fileName, byte[] file)--
In body need to use a storage file where wou need to create a file in your picture library folder.
StorageFile storageFile = await picturesLibraryFolder.CreateFileAsync(fileName);
And finaly you need to write bytes
await FileIO.WriteBytesAsync(storageFile, file);
To be more easier:
#if NETFX_CORE
async void SaveYourScreenShotInPicturesLibrary(string fileName, byte[] file)
{
StorageFile storageFile = await picturesLibraryFolder.CreateFileAsync(fileName);
await FileIO.WriteBytesAsync(storageFile, file);
}
#endif
void MethodWhereYouCallSave(string fileName, byte[] file)
{
#if NETFX_CORE
SaveYourScreenShotInPicturesLibrary(fileName,file)
#endif
}
try like this and let me know :)
It won't work since it requires Windows.Storage library and C#6.0 support. While Unity is not officially support C#6.0 right now. And even with third-party plugin that allow support of C#6-7 - it still didn't work. $$anonymous$$ay be you know some other workaround for saving in Picture gallery on UWP ?
I tried something similar, and it didn't seem to work for me either.
